  • It’s not so much about a second package manager as it is about having a base system and separating extra software from the base system.

    Moving extra packages out of the base system allows the extra packages to be updated quicker. Fewer things get frozen when the stable point in time distro release is tagged. This also helps the base as it can move without having to worry about every piece of software in the repos being compatible with the changes.

    The concept exists as 3rd party repos. However, most aren’t setup to be as cleanly separated as ports are.

    Drug tests penalize people for what they do on their own time. They’re a stick used to beat the proles.

    Someone blasted at work is a problem. Klaus getting blasted off shift isn’t.

    Secondary affects are probably worse, and more diabolical. Why kill one person when you could kill millions! Klaus running over Andy while blasted is less evil than the guy who put lead in gasoline.⛽️ Sure it’s easier to imagine, but one tear doesn’t make an ocean.
